Should print out this thread, and then throw it in the microwave for a few.
I already did, and when the smoke cleared there was a 390x sitting there.
It didn't work tho...

Hand write it with number 1 pencil. Fold up the paper and microwave on high for at least 30 seconds. ;-)Should print out this thread, and then throw it in the microwave for a few.
1 Microwaved graphics card for few minutes, because it has the overheating issues.
2 Plastic around pins were melted and some plugs around interface sockets, the metal part, had some burning coming out.
3 Removed the graphics card, installed it, failed to show anything on the display at all.
4 3rd time PC won't even turn on as in power. The ethernet LED was lit.
4 Tried that again with unplugging cables and having one RAM only in the PC and only the main SSD
5 Now the PC won't turn on at all, ethernet LED is not turning on.
6 tried couple of tricks from the internet to turn it on like have a screw driver on both power switch pins but nothing happthis is a spoof right.
This is a spoof I hope. If not, never in your lifetime ever try to to repair a Gawd damn thing. The world will thank you for it. Love Putin.1 Microwaved graphics card for few minutes, because it has the overheating issues.

7 HELP !!!

LOL! Yeah, that's the ticket!What I notices is that it creates fire around it. That means it sort of melts or soften the metals under its waves.
:|LOL! Yeah, that's the ticket!
Seriously, did you try another known good card? I'd go with an old one or really cheap one, just in case your entire system is now a welding machine.

Newer solders with a higher melting point require a stronger oven.How do the newer cards fare with this amazing technique? Good?

Microwave vaporisation, you found another plane of existence!How did I ever miss this thread?
I just ordered four 4090s for a quad sli setup. I think I might put them in the microwave before install to make sure all of the solder joints are set.All newer generation cards fare quite well. Use "Hi" for 3 minutes. EXCEPTION: the RTX4090, due to its well-known high power consumption, needs "Defrost" for 30 minutes. (Or, just set the microwave to frozen ground beef, 10 lbs.)
(Unless your microwave does not use 120v/60Hz. If you're on some other power transmission system, double the above times.)
All 4 at the same time, but you're gonna need those X1 to X16 slot adapter things people use for mining since 4 of them will exceed the ATX spec for board length in the expansion slots. Gotta use those riser cables to get them out of the way. The X1 slot bandwidth shouldn't be an issue.I just ordered four 4090s for a quad sli setup.

Do you think I should do them one at a time or do all 4 together? I think it might be better to do all 4 so that they all get exactly the same waves?
Thanks I just wasted an hour watching shit explode in microwavesThere's a youtube channel dedicated to this you could have donated a vid to if you recorded it...
I was planning on hooking them together with the display pert cables in thunderbolt mode. I have 3x deep cycle marine batteries wired in line with 3x 1200watt at power supplies for the power. Have to run extension cords from different circuts to keep brakes from tripping, lol.All 4 at the same time, but you're gonna need those X1 to X16 slot adapter things people use for mining since 4 of them will exceed the ATX spec for board length in the expansion slots.

I expect that's what you'll havefire

Neither of those temperatures cook food. So... Neat?Keeping it alive in 2023.
Out of curiosity, I googled his username.
Came across a "princeboy47" on an Arab Hardware forum. Google translated a post he made and mentioned he lives in Egypt. Perhaps that's why he microwaved it....I doubt ovens are common place in a country that rarely gets below 50°F during their "winter" and average summer highs of almost 100°F.
A bare metal wok focuses sunlight, you can cook a sausage on a pan lid.Neither of those temperatures cook food. So... Neat?
And I'm sure that's what Egyptians do each and every day. Cook on a pan lid.A wok focuses sunlight, you can cook a sausage on a pan lid.
I feel like the issue is more heating the fuck out of your living area. Why would you want hot food when it's 100+fAnd I'm sure that's what Egyptians do each and every day. Cook on a pan lid.
I imagine a few other issues due to lower wages.Something I noticed, back when I made videos about graphics card repairs for Youtube, is that most of the audience was in the parts of the world that don't have such strong trade ties with China and Taiwan, I assume because the people there are less affluent, but it seems like it was more of an availability thing than one of cost.
I had one guy from Jordan reach out to me, desperate to get his R9 390X working again. He was incredulous that I had a 6900XT, and explained that that card costs like six months' salary for a normal person in his country, but that the real problem was that you can't just order another card from Newegg and have it show up in a few days. It wouldn't shock me to find out that the situation in Egypt is similar, where the problems of availability we have here in the states are compounded by a lack of well developed distribution and retailer infrastructure.
Ever have cold snatch? Some things should always be warm, no matter the outside temperature…I feel like the issue is more heating the fuck out of your living area. Why would you want hot food when it's 100+f
